Is there a way I can get automatically the "ae", "Ae", "oe" and "Oe" ligatures in XeLaTeX, without the need of looking for the glyphs in the unicode table?<br>

Properly, those aren't ligatures, but diphthongs and should be used when linguistically appropriate or when specifically trying to achieve an ``antique'' effect, but said effect should not rise to the level of affectation which will interfere w/ reading the text.<br>
